Questions about Lucene

[Andreas Hartmann <an...@apache.org>]

Hi Lenya devs,

I have some questions about he Lucene integration:

- Why do we have a search module and a lucene module?

- Why are there so many references to lucene in the core?

   - global-sitemap.xmap
   - lucene.xmap
   - resources/misc/lucene


I'll try to make myself familiar with the search code, and I
hope we can unify this.

(Without any knowledge of the implementation) I hope the search module
is a redirect to the lucene module. That allows other search software
to be added as modules without changing the search API for
publications.  A publication could override the search module to
redirect to a different global search module without adding the new
search module to the publication.

OK, does anyone object to remove the search module?

+1 to remove these files

Thanks for your investigations and clarification!

The lucene module is the soc work that Robert did for us.  The search 
module was there before Roberts work was committed, and was not removed 
(don't think it was working).

We should also move the searchbox generation from the sitetree module to 
the lucene module (or to a search module that uses the lucene module).

I believe that the search module can be removed. I removed it locally 
and the search/indexing is still worked, I had to move 
s\j\o\a\l\search\Grep.java to the core.

As far as I can tell, these can be removed. (I removed them locally and 
the search/indexing is still worked)

as can:
s\j\o\a\l\cms\task\LuceneTask.java
s\j\o\a\l\cms\search
